\nThe Remote Sensing Unit, or Remote Sensing, was established pursuant to Ministerial Order No. B\/T\/1494 on 9\/21\/1999, which was communicated to us in a letter from the University of Baghdad \/ Department of Scientific Affairs, No. 37\/15 on 10\/12\/1999, as the university\u2019s letter included the Ministry\u2019s desire to name it. Remote sensing unit in line with what is known in Arab countries. The book also included the Ministry’s desire for this unit to be the nucleus of a research center in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unit objectives:<\/span><\/strong>
\n1. Preparing research on remote sensing applications in various scientific and applied fields.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Supervising graduate students accepted into the departments of physics, astronomy, geology, and other relevant branches to complete research related to remote sensing, each within its specialty.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Participation in seminars, courses and scientific conferences related to the specialty.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Keeping pace with scientific progress in this field through various means by developing and studying new research to meet the requirements and natural phenomena in our country.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Concluding research contracts with state institutions in the fields of remote sensing and its applications.<\/span><\/p>\n

6. Opening specialized courses in the topics of remote sensing, image processors, and programming languages \u200b\u200bfor employees of state departments.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vision of unity:<\/span><\/strong>
\nDue to the accumulated experience in the field of remote sensing, image processing, and information technology, and the availability of specialized staff in the college, the Remote Sensing Unit, or remote sensing, is looking forward to becoming a department for graduate studies, in order to:<\/span><\/p>\n

Preparing specialists in the topics of remote sensing and image processing to provide state institutions with the necessary experience and skills from those holding advanced degrees in this field.<\/span>
\nExpanding applied research studies to keep pace with progress in these specializations, given the distinct interest these technologies constitute in the countries of the civilized world currently.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unit message:<\/span><\/strong>
\nThe importance of studies and cultural applications of remote sensing issues (remote sensing – as it is called in most Arab countries) is no secret to anyone, especially according to expectations, Iraq is entering a new phase of construction and development through which all available capabilities can be harnessed to accelerate the completion of the required tasks. Remote sensing applications can be exploited to facilitate and speed up many tasks that require great effort using traditional methods, including, but not limited to: predicting water levels in Iraqi rivers, estimating groundwater quantities, helping to reveal the locations of some antiquities, ores, and natural resources within the earth, predicting Depending on weather and climate conditions and exploiting this to improve agricultural yields and their quantity, monitoring the growth of field crops and predicting the amount of resulting yields, producing high-scale and topographical maps covering the surface of the country, assisting in planning cities and towns and constructing highways, electric power lines and railways…… etc. The above can be achieved by providing satellite images and data on a regular basis.<\/span><\/p>\n
